I understand your point, but at the same time, you have to understand the work that goes into being able to make the car that low. It's not just throwing it on cut springs and calling it good.

Check out this car. It's static, and daily driven this way.



These are normal coilovers designed to get low, and the work he did to get it that low is quality.

Yes The White Beamer above is what fitment and stance is supposed to be what it's all about, But the VIP 45 degree angle negative camber is absolutely pointless IMO.
Honestly, How many sets of tires would you be going through each year if you ran that negative?

I Absolutely Agree with this guy!!

Everyone has a different opinion on the F&S. Because even then, I wouldn't consider the white BMW to be SPOT ON F&S. I don't like the rear poke and tucking front tire on what looks to be a 25-30 series sidewall.

Now, The cars i posted on page 517, To ME is THE best F&S.

That's right, everyone has to make their car fast !!! There's no such thing as having different tastes or styles. That goes for everyone, whether you have a luxury sedan or any FWD vehicle, focus on making your car fast dont spend time or money making it look the way you want it to.

i just dont understand how someone with camber like some of theres cars have can be considered good "fitment and stance" it isnt setup properly, you are stretching tires sometimes to an unsafe limit. and the car will not perform better with that much camber... (that is what you are trying to make your car look like right??? a Performance/ Race inspired vehicle, minus the vip cars...)
again not hating just trying to understand how ppl are considering that a good thing...

tire stretching is growing on me, not the overly done shit, but the semi stretched. but the demon camber and all that crap, no. the white is300 is an example of the perfect f&s for me
